how to decode iso-8859-1

[steve mettraux]

I have this kind of string,

dim myString as string = " =E0 ton essai d'=E9tablir une"

i know the kind of encoding, here I have iso-8859-1

dim charset as string ="iso-8859-1"

how to decode it with a component of the .NET Framework?

thanks

Encoding e = Encoding.GetEncoding("iso-8859-1");
e.GetChars(byte[] buffer...);

It's seems not working, it brings back exactly the same string.
The result should be : "à ton essai d'établir une"

Actually above seems like quoted printable encoded text, not just
iso-8859-1 encoded one.
